c7000 - PORT MAPPINGS

Good day! All,

Welcome back.. the other day someone asked me how the port mappings of Nic's and Interconnect modules work for a Half-height and Full-height blades i showed them 2 screen shots i always carry around..

• Half-height server blades typically will have 2 embedded Gigabit NICs and two c-Class PCIe mezzanine option connectors. A half-hright server configured with one dual-port Gigabit NIC mezzanine card and one quad-port NIC mezzanine card provides eight independent NICs
• Full-height server blades typically have four embedded Gigabit NICs and three c-Class PCIe mezzanine option connectors. A full-height server configured with three quad-port Gigabit NIC mezzanine cards provides 16 independent Gigabit NICs

Half-Height Server:

Full-Height Server:

i know i am just sharing little bit of so much around Blades and enclosures and i think HP has very good guides up there explaining more on the same..

Hope this helps someone!!!
